#' Add a vega axis specification to a ggvis plot
#'
#' Axis specifications allow you to either override the default axes,
#' or additional axes.
#'
#' More information about axes can be found in the "axes and legends" vignettes.
#'
#' @section Compared to ggplot2:
#'
#' In ggplot2, axis (and legend) properties are part of the scales
#' specification. In vega, they are separate, which allows the specification
#' of multiple axes, and more flexible linkage between scales and axes.
#'
#' @param vis A ggvis object.
#' @param type The type of axis. Either x or y.
#' @param scale The name of the scale backing the axis component. Defaults to
#'   the scale type - you will need to specify if you want (e.g.) a scale
#'   for a secondary y-axis.
#' @param orient The orientation of the axis. One of top, bottom, left or right.
#'   The orientation can be used to further specialize the axis type (e.g., a y
#'   axis oriented for the right edge of the chart) - defaults to bottom for
#'   x axes, and left for y axes.
#' @param title A title for the axis. By default, it uses the name of the field
#'   in the first data set used by the scale. Use \code{""} to suppress the
#'   title.
#' @param title_offset The offset (in pixels) from the axis at which to place
#'   the title.
#' @param format The formatting pattern for axis labels. Vega uses D3's format
#'   pattern.
#' @param ticks A desired number of ticks. The resulting number may be different
#'   so that values are "nice" (multiples of 2, 5, 10) and lie within the
#'   underlying scale's range.
#' @param values Explicitly set the visible axis tick values.
#' @param subdivide If provided, sets the number of minor ticks between major
#'   ticks (the value 9 results in decimal subdivision).
#' @param tick_padding The padding, in pixels, between ticks and text labels.
#' @param tick_size_major,tick_size_minor,tick_size_end
#'   The size, in pixels, of major, minor and end ticks.
#' @param offset The offset, in pixels, by which to displace the axis from the
#'   edge of the enclosing group or data rectangle.
#' @param layer A string indicating if the axis (and any gridlines) should be
#'   placed above or below the data marks. One of "front" or "back" (default).
#' @param grid A flag indicating if gridlines should be created in addition to
#'   ticks.
#' @param properties Optional mark property definitions for custom axis styling.
#'   Should be an object created by \code{\link{axis_props}}, with properties
#'   for ticks, majorTicks, minorTicks, grid, labels, title, and axis.
